Updating a Microsoft Access 2013 table with data from a pass-through query - sql

Question

I am trying, unsuccessfully so far, to update records in a Microsoft Access 2013 table (called tbl_Data) with data from an AS400 table (LIBRARY.TABLE).
As you can see in my Access 2013 pass-through query below, I am trying to join the access table with the AS400 table using the Prefix & Number fields, and from there, update the access table with Name & Address information from the AS400 table.
Here is my latest attempt:
UPDATE
tbl_Data
SET
tbl_Data.FirstName = a.NINMFR,
tbl_Data.MiddleName = a.NINMMD,
tbl_Data.LastName = a.NINAML,
tbl_Data.BuildingNumber = a.NIBLNR,
tbl_Data.StreetName = a.NISTNM,
tbl_Data.AptSuite = a."NIAPT#",
tbl_Data.Address2 = a.NIADR2,
tbl_Data.City = a.NICITY,
tbl_Data.State = a.NISTAT,
tbl_Data.ZipCode = a.NIZIPC
INNER JOIN
LIBRARY.TABLE a
ON
tbl_Data.Prefix = a.NIPRFX,
tbl_Data.Number = a.NIPLNR;
When I run this query, I get an error that says:
OBDC--call failed.
[IBM][System i Access ODBC Driver][DB2 for i5/OS]SQL0199 - Keyword INNER not expected. Valid tokens: USE SKIP WAIT WITH WHERE. (#-199)
I would really appreciate any assistance, as I'm out of ideas.
Thanks!

That is Microsoft specific syntax for an update, it does not work on DB2. Try this:
UPDATE
tbl_Data
SET
(tbl_Data.FirstName,
tbl_Data.MiddleName,
tbl_Data.LastName,
tbl_Data.BuildingNumber,
tbl_Data.StreetName,
tbl_Data.AptSuite,
tbl_Data.Address2,
tbl_Data.City,
tbl_Data.State,
tbl_Data.ZipCode)
=
(SELECT
a.NINMFR,
a.NINMMD,
a.NINAML,
a.NIBLNR,
a.NISTNM,
a."NIAPT#",
a.NIADR2,
a.NICITY,
a.NISTAT,
a.NIZIPC
FROM
library.table a
WHERE
tbl_Data.Prefix = a.NIPRFX,
tbl_Data.Number = a.NIPLNR)
WHERE
EXISTS (
SELECT *
FROM
library.table a
WHERE
tbl_Data.Prefix = a.NIPRFX,
tbl_Data.Number = a.NIPLNR);
